Happy Mobile is not that happy anymore

I was clicking thru the net these days looking for a suitable talk plan operator, and i discovered that the Happy Operator (my previous talk plan number) had changed its wonderful rate into a lousy one..

Before this, it was RM0.99 to ALL operators, including Maxis, Celcom, Digi, home fixed lines anywhere in M'sia including Sabah n Sarawak, for max 45mins. This is the most valuable plan for ppl who chat long.

Now, read the following latest updates:

"During Happy Hour, an extra long call up to 45 minutes at anytime from 9:00am – 5:00pm will only cost an affordable RM0.99!

Calling your friends will always be easy on your wallet even if they are on other networks! Enjoy long conversations at only RM0.99 for the first 15 minutes, and RM0.33 a minute thereafter to all networks, nationwide. If your call is under 3 minutes, pay only RM0.33 a minute for all calls to your Happy friends.

SMS will only cost you a tiny RM0.10 for each message sent. You'll still get 60 days' validity with every reload, no matter the value. So you can top-up with RM5.00 and still get 60 days of talktime. And that is the story of Happy."

So, only certain time, with only Happy to Happy number, can enjoy the cool rate. Although RM0.99 for 15 mins still consider not bad (about 6cents per min), u tend to talk over time and need to pay at an expensive rate.

I was introducing this plan earlier at here, n i felt sorry that this plan had changed its policy. Looks like it is getting harder to survive during this economy crisis..

新春大团圆


年除夕,午餐与家人去吃点特别的,好久没吃的Pizza。现在有新年特别的Golden Happiness Pizza,中间有虾,旁边有充满Cheese的‘黄金桶’,味道不错。

家里有好多新年饼和糕,今年少买了,但是亲朋戚友给了又很多罗!难怪新年没机会饿啊 :p

婆婆不在后,我们依然每年在三叔家吃火锅。拜了祖先后才开动哦!

山珍海味,尤其是三叔选的鱼头,亲手蒸的,一流!

聚在一起,开开心心吃顿火锅罗!

A Glimpse of Cytology Lab

Few days ago we had a class in pathology department regrading histopathology of O&G specimen. I'm currently in O&G now, but in the new system, we only taking Gynecology for 4 weeks now. Obstetric will be continued during the major posting rotation.

Pathology is a great branch in hospital, where they in charge of most specimen for investigative and diagnostic purpose. Specimens are sent here and the pathologists have to handle hundreds of specimens within a day in this busy hospital.

The machine on the left is used to make the specimen onto a single layer cell, sounds unbelievable? it also can reproduce more sample for other investigation.

Place for staining, looks familiar in our laboratory in second year.

Looks cool, not sure what is it..

Powerful Light Microscope, the working desk of a pathologist

Specimens waiting to be examined under microscope

In O&G, PAP Smear (for cervical CA), endometrial sampling and high vaginal swab are some of the common specimens done. They are usually done in the outpatient clinic and the patients are asked to review the result on next appointment. Using a Cusco's speculum is not as easy as i thought, as young patient is not as 'lax' as the older or multiparous women.


Cusco Vaginal Speculum

Like O&G or not? I would say okay lar, but probably not the best thing i wanted to be :p

分享最近尝到的美食 :)

Sunway 重庆麻辣火锅!跟整班钟灵buddy去吃,不错哦!特别的是把薄薄的肉片放进麻辣汤烫下就吃,特别特别。。对面就是出名的缘火锅(以前介绍过),这里没这样拥挤,也没抢得这样凶。火锅多人热闹吃得就开心罗!

Red Box 唱K 午餐配套,牛肉啐spaghetti,蛮香的,又大碟,真是吃喝玩乐哦!去这个时段最值得啦,十一点多去可唱到三点噢,只要歌曲继续播,还可唱更旧呢!

靠近马大医院,往Jalan Gasing路边,叫怡保芽菜鸡的,也很好吃。店面很大,员工都用PDA点菜,可能因为这样,价钱蛮贵的。还是马六甲的中华鸡饭粒更香好吃又便宜。

熟悉吗?马大生应该对Section 17的麻辣板面不陌生吧!吃了好多次,还是一流。它是在出名的糖水档旁边,个人觉得干捞比较好吃(上图),可能不太能吃辣吧!:P

SS2 Murni的Sizzling Yee Mee。我也不知道为什么会点这道,平时没叫过就试试看罗!味道普通,而且蛮咸,还是叫些热门的较有水准。

汽车看病记

上星期六拿车去修理,因为最近车无端端死火,所以就拿去检查看下,一下是病历报告:

Chief Complaint: The car had few episodes of mati engine for the past 1 week

History of presenting illness: Occured a few times, worse on yesterday, relieved by restarting engine after few times.

Past Medical History: Long history of air cond maintenance, engine always had leaking oil in the past.

Past Surgical History: Changed tyres and water hose last year.

Family History: Many protons suffered from this problem.

Drug History: Usually takes Mobil octane 92. Good compliance :)

Social History: Has a good owner, which is me, wahahaha! Currently the 2nd hand user.

Examination: The wire for engine might be loosened, which causes the mati engine problem. It was fixed and should be reviewed in few weeks time.
However, there was accidental finding of leaking engine oil. With experience, it was believed that the meter belt and the rubber stuffs were spoiled. Need immediate surgery!!

So I had no choice but to fix the problem, which cost RM250 including labour. Plus RM50 for changing gasket of engine.

Haih.. spend alot these days, i dun mean to waste money unnecessaily, but things just come one by one out of my control..
以下是一些在维修时拍下的照片,他们可是我车的surgery哦!

Resuscitation trolley?!

Oxygen tank?!

The heart and main blood vessels..

The surgeon was starting the operation..

A closer look of the heart chamber and valves

维修车子就像人看病一样,唯一不一样的,是车子坏了可买过,人的生命失去就救不回了。修理车子真贵,尤其是在KL做,但没办法啊!难道驾回槟城做?半路坏了到时花的可不只三位数罗。。最近电话和钱不见,损失惨重,还要修车,新年又要到了,真对不起父母,当初该保管好自己的东西。

仔细想想,病人看病,同样也面对金钱的困难,但身体的健康是最重要,更没得选择放弃。所以医生们啊,对经济困难的病人可否减价呢?

修车的都没得扣,何况是专业的医疗?世界就是向钱看齐了。。

How to split myself into 2?

Fortunately squash we managed to get into semifinal, and volleyball into quarterfinal. But a problem arised now.. next match for both games are on next Monday same time! So how? I need to go set the balls in volleyball, squash we still do not know who is the opponent, it is better every player is there for strategic game..

But i think i will make volleyball as priority coz squash can play earlier or play the last one. We have good players in the team, 3 um players, excluding me :) i'm just another supporting player, haha!

Wish to get some medals this year. Got some skin abrasion in volleyball match, i want something rewarding to pay back!

Feeling a bit lazy these days, watching prison break and it is great! Scoldfied really has a superb mind.

A day with Hospis Malaysia

Main entrance of Hospis Malaysia.

Friday we went to Hospis Malaysia in Cheras. It was part of the PCM posting attachment. Hospis is actually similar to palliative care of terminally ill patients. They go to visit the patient's house to give proper care. Many of these patients are cancer patients who had poor prognosis. They suffer from pain and many family and social problems. The staffness will go and assess them, review the condition and medications, do examination, ask for complaints and make proper management.

Part of the building in Hospis centre.

The nurses report to the doctor every morning during meeting. The doctor will review every case and make adjustment as required. So the nurses will follow the advices and prescription. Sometimes, the nurses can also adjust the dosage or change medication with sufficient experience. We followed from the morning meeting, till separated into small groups of 1 or 2 persons to follow the visit. There are about 7-8 nurses in charge of this home visit. They have their own patients to follow up, and received new patients from time to time.

During visit to a patient, saw these houses with so called 'cartoon house'. Heard that it was once a very expensive house sometime long ago. It is situated beside highway, looks nice from far.

Hospis Malaysia is a NGO where it is supported by the community. They rely on donation and sponsorship from companies. Patients are therefore do not require to pay for the service. However there are many patients who volunteerily to donate due to the kind service provided.

There was a conference in UMMC not long ago regarding palliative care. The health ministry is working towards giving a better palliative care not at terminal stage, but to introduce it at the beginning of disease. They are getting support from many parties include hospital oncology department, palliative care units and Hospis Malaysia. In future, not only these terminally ill patients will be taken care of, but other types of diseases will be given proper care during the process of treatment to reduce suffering.

Visit to spastic centre


Today my subgroup for primary care medicine went to spastic centre near University Malaya. This visit is to give us the opportunity to have an insight of this health and educational facility.

The school was well equipped with many facilities. There were old and new buildings, which consisted of various level of classrooms, vocational classrooms, music room, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, hydrotherapy (mini swimming pool) etc.


The children there were very friendly and cheerful. We were brought by the physiotherapist around the centre, and then free to go around the place. Playing with the children was fun :)

We should not show pity to them, but to give love and courage, and thus they will go further.

Lost my phones n money..

Something horrible happened today (sunday), my phones n money were stolen.. i lost them when i went to wash clothes for a while. My fren came to my room also, the time gap of no-man period was so short. I discovered the lost soon i came back room. Luckily that guy didnt take away my wallet, only the money inside..also my 2 phones.

My room was not locked but closed with the lock hanging. Maybe i should lock whenever i go out including every toilet visits, but thats something troublesome too.. i believe in the security here, maybe it is only for residents in college, coz that guy in cctv recording was coming from outside with a car.

Report had been done in the campus security. But i think nothing much can be done, beside a small hope to trace back the car plate number. Anyway, things that lost hardly comes back.. miss my sony ericsson phone alot..

ID card flashing for the gates in all building entrance should be started 2 weeks ago, but it was delayed. If it was started, outsiders definitely can not come in and walk out that easy. Residents of university hostel should have the right to stay in a safe compound.

Be careful of ur belongings, there are so many bad people outside, they will be punished by the God one day..

New Year Eve with Fireworks, Justin 侧田 & Ip Man 葉問

Goodbye 2008, say hello to 2009! an exciting new year eve at one utama, kl. Before this we were thinking of buying some goods and watch a movie there. Luckily we saw brochure about new year concert at the central park, with the arrivial of Justin 侧田, famous singer from Hong Kong, what a surprised!
The central mall of One Utama was nicely decorated with Christmas and New Year's theme. Look at the bright shining christmass trees on the stage, and the cards design on the floor and around the hall, must have spent alot on these.

Cute tree-man behind us.

Cards as the main design, it's a K!

The movie, Ip Man, was really as good as others' comments, should hv watch it earlier! The movie greatly showed the spirit of a man, and the community, in fighting for dignity and their future. The Kung Fu was impressive, fast and cool, together with the art and moral behind every punch. Dun miss it! It is still widely shown on all theatres :p

Finally, the concert! We went there after the movie and a bit of shopping, coz the artists at the final one hour is always the best, haha! Managed to squeeze a place near the stage, but it was not in front of the stage, but behind, lolz!

To highlight here, is the fantastic fireworks! The fireworks style was following the rhythm of songs, nicely done with many climax. It lasted for about 10-15 minutes, 3 songs with different feel. Another was the arrival of Justin at 12am! Right after the fireworks, he sang for 5 songs, including his famous and new songs, so generous :)

Leaving after his performance, haha, the traffic was not as bad as expectated. Polices were checking on the highwat when going back, probably checking back seat passengers for not wearing seat belt. So remember to wear, coz it is 2009 now!

Hooray 2009! Best wishes to all dear friends, hope u guys have a lovely new year!
